This is the playbook I use after a clean install of MacOS to set everything up.

• Install ssh keys (Role ssh)
• Installs Homebrew packages and app casks (Role homebrew)
• Installs App Store apps with mas-cli (Role mas)
• Modifies MacOS settings (Role settings)
• Install other homebrew packages with custom installation process, e.g. omz (Role custombrew)
• Stow .dotfiles (Role custombrew, task dotfiles)

Clone a repo in the home dir

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/sseletskyy/ansible-macos-playbook.git

1. Install xcode

xcode-select --install

2. Install homebrew

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/Homebrew/brew homebrew
export PATH=$HOME/homebrew/bin:$PATH
brew update --force --quiet
chmod -R go-w "$(brew --prefix)/share/zsh"

3. Install ansible

brew install python
pip3 install ansible
cd ~/ansible-macos-playbook

4. Run ansible-playbook main.yml --verbose --ask-vault-pass. Enter your account password when prompted. Enter vault password when prompted.

5. Or run specific role only

# ssh
ansible-playbook main.yml -t ssh --verbose --ask-vault-pass

# homebrew
ansible-playbook main.yml -t homebrew --verbose

# mas (Macos App Store)
# make sure you have signed in into icloud
ansible-playbook main.yml -t mas --verbose

# settings
ansible-playbook main.yml -t settings --verbose

# custom homebrew
ansible-playbook main.yml -t custombrew --verbose

Here's the solution (need to update to macOS 11.2 RC):

1. Run command in terminal: sudo pmset -a tcpkeepalive 0

2. Run command in terminal: sudo pmset -a powernap 0

3. Make sure these options is not checked: "System Preferences->Battery->Optimized battery charging" and "System Preferences->Battery->Power Adapter->Wake for network access"

4. Reboot your macbook
